5,151-5,175 (7,426 Records)
Graph comparing the distance of outlying structures to Pueblo la Plata on one hand and the size of these structures (estimated floor area) on the other. Pattern suggests that outlying structures near the pueblo tend to be larger in size.
Comparison of Outlying Structures at Pueblo la Plata: Proportions of Assemblage by Number of Rooms (2007)
Pie chart showing the proportions of outlying structures at Pueblo la Plata with various room counts. Most outliers consist of one room. In general, there is a negative correlation between the number of rooms in a structure and their prevalence.

A Compositional Analysis of Plain Ware Pottery from Pueblo la Plata and Richinbar Ruin, Agua Fria National Monument, Arizona (2008)
Temper analysis of plain ware ceramics from Pueblo La Plata indicates that none of the pottery contains local sand. La Plata is located atop Perry Mesa in central Arizona, where basalt dominates the geology. Petrographic thin-section analysis confirmed the observation that basalt was not present, thereby implying that the tempering materials used to make the pottery were not locally obtained. Unless local potters went far afield to procure their temper, the pueblo residents probably obtained...

Connectivity from the Southwest to the Southern Northern Periphery Interaction Between West-Central Colorado and the Mesa Verde Region (2008)
Formative period archaeological sites in West-Central Colorado have stimulated debate and discussion related to its archaeological cultural classification. Indirect evidence and comparisons with recent artifact analysis for neighboring areas to the north and west of this region suggests that pan-Ancestral Puebloan culture influenced this area from 200 B.C. till A.D.1200. This interaction resulted either by trade and emulation or was developed by an earlier migration into the area. West-Central...
Corner Construction and Possible Construction Sequence for Room Blocks in Richinbar Ruin on Black Mesa at Agua Fria National Monument (2007)
Prior research as a part of the Legacies on the Landscape project has addressed architectural issues at Richinbar Ruin. In the spring of 2005, Karen Schollmeyer wrote a paper, Architecture Studies at Richinbar Ruin, which outlined the rationale for and the results of study into how Richinbar was built. Since that time, changes due to both wild fires and seasonal variation potentially made possible the acquisition of improved data in the same area. The purpose of this study was to obtain that...

Cosmological Practice and Social Complexity in North and Central Mexico (2007)
To our minds the most interesting issue that emerges from juxtaposing the cosmologies of northern and central Mexico is the relationship between cosmology and social complexity. The regions were historically related and shared both broad structures many details of cosmology. Yet Central Mexican societies had undergone an urban transformation that the societies of northern and western Mexico had not experienced. In our view there are scale-dependent regularities in the material expression of...
Cosmology in the New World
This project consists of articles written by members of Santa Fe Institute’s cosmology research group. Overall, the goal of this group is to understand the larger relationships between cosmology and society through a theoretically open-ended, comparative examination of the ancient American Southwest, Southeast, and Mesoamerica.
Cottontail Procurement (1987)
Flint and Neusius’ (1987) examination of the assemblage of cottontail remains from the Dolores Anasazi faunal record is an especially good example of synthetic research contributions to DAP research. Their study utilized the subset of the DAP faunal assemblage contained within the BUNNY10 dataset (Flint and Neusius 1987:257). Since the two species of cottontail utilized by the Dolores Anasazi have distinct habitat preferences, their relative abundances provided an opportunity to track patterns...
